The water looks good. However, they list some contaminants present, though they are below the action level. Lead was measured as high as 12.7 ppb (maximum contaminant level is 15 ppb), which is below the action. TTHMs and HAA5s are listed, common in water using chlorine.  Fluoride is listed averaging 1.01 ppm. Chloramines is is used as the disinfectant and averages 2.7 ppm which is high. Our KDF/GAC cartridge will reduce chlorine, lead, arsenic, TTHMs and HAA5s. We have a special catalytic carbon cartridge that will reduce chloramines.

I would suggest our double under-counter filter Model UCD-CH for chloramines, lead, arsenic, TTHM and HAA5s, other heavy metals, pesticides and organics (countertop Model CTD-CH).  If you'd like to reduce fluoride, up to 90 percent, use our triple under-counter Model UCT-CH-F or CTT-CH-F for countertop.
